An offset screwdriver is a Z-shaped tool with screwdriver heads on each end and a horizontal metal handle in between. Hex screwdrivers come in a range of sizes and lengths, so it's important to find a tool that is compatible with the screws to ensure quick and effective installation or removal. The six-sided shape of the hexagon reduces the chance of slipping, allowing hex fasteners to be driven at high speeds by electric-power hex screwdrivers or drills without the screwdriver head stripping the screw notch.

Robertson screws and screwdrivers were named after their Canadian inventor and are commonly found in the automotive and furniture industries. The head shape means they are less likely to strip which tends to ruin the end, meaning they are likely to last up to ten times as long. However, these tools are better for light-duty general use because the loose fit of the bits can contribute to slipping and screw stripping. If you plan to use the screwdriver for a long period of time, then a padded grip can help reduce hand fatigue.This tool is ideal for working in tight spaces where a standard screwdriver would be too long to fit, like behind a wall, in the ceiling, or under a heavy appliance. While most screwdrivers are manually operated, there are some models that have an internal motor to drive the screws.
